Dimming CC driver for mini herb garden
Posted: Tue Oct 19, 2021 7:44 pm
Hi all,
I have been playing around with some extra parts I had laying around and built a tiny light array for an herb garden using 2 bridgelux strips and a little CC driver:
Strips: (2x) BXEB-L0560Z-50S2000-C-C3
Driver: LPC-60-1400
It works great. The problem is that it is way too much light for the space. The strips need to be mounted a lot higher than I have space for without cooking the greens. Is there a cheap way to dim a CC driver? Can I just use a standard dimmer switch in between the driver and strips without burning anything up?
